Tanner Skenderian | Museum Assignment 2 Anthro 1218 1
Tanner Skenderian | Museum Assignment 2 Anthro 1218 Harvard’s Own St. Lawrence Island Umiak The Umiak model at the Harvard Museum of Natural History Model best resembles that of St. Lawrence Island The umiak was a symbol of community and a staple for survival for many native populations of circumpolar North America. Dating back as far as 2,000 years, the umiak has varied slightly in coordination with the needs and customs of different populations. The model of an umiak at the Harvard Museum of Natural History was catalogued with very little information about the specific boat it represents. Through closer analysis of its construction and a few minor exceptions, this model arguably is the closest in resemblance to the umiak of St. Lawrence Island. The structure and construction of the St. Lawrence Island umiak is one of the more well- documented despite the fact that traditional boat construction is passed down generation to generation (Fair, 2005: 235). St. Lawrence Island is located in Nome, Alaska, in the southern inlet of the Bering Strait. Umiaks are distinct from kayaks, structures sometimes referred to as “Eskimo Hunting Boats,” for their wider shape and lack of a super-structure (United States National Museum, 1964: 190). The claims that support that this is an umiak of St. Lawrence Island, despite the fact that it is catalogued as an “Oomiak” of Northern Labrador and not Alaska, will hopefully be dispelled in the pages that follow. Walrus hide typically bounds the umiak, commonly known as a skin boat. The St. Lawrence Island umiak was typically bound in the hide of a female walrus. -

Tim's philosophy involves building minimum-consumption personal infrastructure from recycled scavenged materials. Redirecting the waste stream. Doing much with little. A reverse peace-corps to learn from poor people all over the world. Intro: Cozy Boat A little boat like a floating papasan chair. Perfect to lay in and look at the sky. Exactly big enough for two people to snuggle. The supermodels in the boat are Arwen and Saul. This boat is part umiak, part currach, part coracle, part papasan chair. Here's how to make a tougher skin for it from truck tarp material. The book "Umiak" by Skip Snaith will fill in any construction details that aren't clear here. -

United States National Museum
SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM BULLETIN 2 30 WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 MUSEUM OF HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY The Bark Canoes and Skin Boats of North America Edwin Tappan Adney and Howard I. Chapelle Curator of Transportation SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 — Publications of the United States National Aiuseum The scholarly and scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series the Museum publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of its constituent museums—The Museum of Natural History and the Museum of History and Technology setting forth newly acquired facts in the fields of Anthropology, Biology, History, Geology, and Technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries, to cultural and scientific organizations, and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers from the Museum of Natural History. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902 papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum of Natural History have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions Jrom the United States National Herbarium, and since 1959, in Bulletins titled "Contributions from the Museum of History and Technology," have been gathered shorter papers relating to the collections and research of that Museum. -

We Paddle the Globe. Current Designs Borrows Its Design Influence and Techniques from Waters Across the Globe
2017 We paddle the globe. Current Designs borrows its design influence and techniques from waters across the globe. Inspired by these purpose-built kayaks and the pioneers that fueled the sport’s innovation, we’ve continued to advance the art through new techniques, materials and technologies. It’s a philosophy born from the idea that it’s not about where you take your kayak – it’s where the kayak takes you. So regardless of the destination, we invite you to begin each journey by exploring our North American, Greenland, British and new Danish style collections, in addition to a range of recreational and specialty models. Each one destined to be “a work of art, made for life” that let’s you take your passion further. 1 Makers OF movement Our international design influence and the visionaries who shape it. Long before the paddle enters the water, New England-based kayak designer Barry each kayak begins with a pen stroke. The Buchanan partnered with us on the famous product of inspiration and experience, hard chine kayak, the Caribou. And later, Nigel Current Designs develops and refines each Foster and CD brought the Greenland-styled model through collaborations with some of Rumor to the world’s waters.
